Over Spring Break, I traveled to Europe for the first time. I stayed primarily in Germany, but also went to Lichtenstein, Switzerland, and Austria. In short, the trip was super fun and I plan on moving to Germany after graduating high school. The first place in Germany that I went on my trip (other than the airport) was a lovely city named Rothenburg. I suppose you should call it a town, as it is really quite small and one little area that you could travel all the way around multiple times a day. It was a medieval city built around the 1000's and looked sort of like this:
Actually, it looked exactly like this, these were pictures taken off of my camera. Afterwards, we moved onto Munich, which I loved, but unfortunately did not get pictures of because I was feeling very ill. We went to a market place where they had a large May Pole, which is like a meeting center for everyone (literally this giant pole sticking out of the ground, it is also decorated). We went various other places including Dachau Concentration camp and the Salzburg salt mines in Austria. We literally had pork every night for dinner. It was good pork, though. I have yet to have more pork since returning to the US. The final places that I visited while in Europe were Luzern and Heidelburg. Heidelburg would have been more fun had I been able to spend more than a day there, and I absolutely loved Luzern (Switzerland). I bought 30 euros of chocolate. Everyone made fun of me when I got home but it's barely been a week and most of it is gone. So yeah. I went places. I did things. This kind of post is not regular for my music/book/film related blog, but I don't often get to do things like this. This may turn into a travel blog where I drool over places that I won't be able to see in person for a long time. Have a spiffy day, reader.
